Driving just the short white road to the property, the elevated position of the traditional farmhouse is noticeable and on parking the car, the sense of tranquility and quality of life that this property has, is evident immediately.

The garden, land and woodlands (totalling approx. 7ha) surround the property making it private but not remote with 3.5ha of olive groves allowing for olive oil production.

The garden has many mature trees (fig, walnut, oak) along with many rose bushes, herbs and flowering shrubs, that perfume the air.

On the higher terrace of the garden, surrounded by large trees and odorous bushes, there is the swimming pool, offering views over the house, olive groves and the surrounding countryside.

The farmhouse has three main floors offering ample living and sleeping areas.

On the GROUND FLOOR entering via the south facing terrace/patio, there is an open plan kitchen/living room. The kitchen area is well equipped with all mod-cons and large table for dining. There is a technical room off to one side that is also used as a dry pantry. The living room area of this room offers a comfortable space to relax in front of an open fireplace. Access to the garden from both the kitchen and living room is possible via the French doors which allow also lots of natural light into the room.

From the living room, up a few steps, there is a hall with stairs to upper floors. Off the hall there is a shower bathroom and a downstairs bedroom, again with doors leading to the garden.

Taking the stairs to the UPPER LEVEL, the staircase splits and to the left is a large room which is currently used as an art studio but could easily be used as a bedroom. To the right, there is a hall leading into an upper living room (the original kitchen of the house) with external access to a loggia and external staircase and the old, open fireplace. 

Through this living room, there is an ensuite bedroom, offering views to Preggio.

On THE TOP LEVEL of the farmhouse, there is a further bedroom, bathroom and room which could be considered as a reading area or another bedroom if required
